31 August OK, so I'm back...maybeOK, so I've decided to give this whole blogging thing a try again. I've been gone a while, if you hadn't noticed. I've just been busy, really. I haven't had a ton of energy to type out a blog worth reading. I've done a few rants on My.Space, but was honestly too lazy to cut and paste. A. will start first grade next week, and I cannot even express what that's doing to my head and to my heart. We're considering enrolling C. in Taekwondo, W. might be taking him to a place where they offer classes this weekend to check it out. We think it would help him become more confident, and it would also give him something to do and something to look forward to. W. got a new job, which he loves! He's a patient care technician for an orthopaedic surgery center. He helps prep the patients for surgery, assists during surgery, and then stays with the patient following surgery to provide aftercare. SO much better than watching people pee all day! He's also still going to school full time, so we're still not seeing more than an hour or so of each other a day, but it's still unquestionably better than him being deployed. I'm still really enjoying my job, and can't wait until I can get back to school and become a librarian. I have no clue when that might be, but hey, it's something to look forward to. Our summer has been pretty uneventful, with the exception of my family reunion, which was wonderful! We did an amazing job planning it (if I do say so myself), and everyone really seemed to enjoy themselves. Even W. said it was the best time he's had in a long time. This, coming from a guy who hates doing anything with people he doesn't know, is a huge compliment. I'm hoping that we can make next summer be a little more fun for the kids. With W. working all day and going to school all night, and our financial situation being what it is (thanks to the shitty amount of BAH and the cost of living at our last duty station, and well, some bad decisions on our part), we haven't really been able to do anything this summer. I took the kids to the fair today, but I'll save that entry for tomorrow.
Before I go, Amy tagged me to do this a long time ago, and well, better late than never:
Five items in my freezer
- frozen chocolate chip waffles w/ Capt. Jack on them (yummy - the waffles and Johnny Depp)
- a tub of chocolate ice cream
- a boo-boo kitty
- ice maker that isn't connected so it does nothing but take up space
- boneless skinless chicken breast
Five items in the closet (my bedroom closet)
- lavendertherapy mist
- extra sheet sets
- foot powder
- massage pillow/mat set
- a blue wig
Five items in the car
- my nametag for work
- a Scooby Doo umbrella
- a magna doodle
- some Chik-Fil-A BBQ sauce
- the Curious George soundtrack that I borrowed from the library (Jack Johnson...I love it!)
Five items in my purse
- a "Winter Green Doubler" OH lottery scratch off on which I won two dollars and never cashed in
- pics of the kids
- my camera
- children's pain reliever
- a bunch of receipts
OK, now I'm supposed to tag five people and have them do the same thing I just did on their blogs, but considering the fact that my last entry was made on June 1st, I'm not really holding my breath that anyone's still reading here. But I'll try anyway. I'm tagging: Tracy, Laura, JoAnne, Gina, and Carole.
